You are about to enter a vision-zone of heaven descending upon the earth unveiled before Isaiah, the first of the prophets, the prophet of Zion. The book of Isaiah is an enormous collection of prophecies described as “The Vision.” It is not simply a teaching or a historical record; it is the overarching vision of the heart of God revealed to His seer-prophet. This vision spans the ages and touches every nation on earth, becoming a collective overview of all that God has planned. The prophecies are vast and their grand themes are unrivaled in all of Scripture. With panoramic insight, Isaiah preaches about the virgin birth of Christ, the Bride of Christ, and the New Jerusalem. These prophecies also present a description of the cataclysmic judgments, the survival of a holy remnant emerging in Zion, and the canopy of glory that is coming to earth. The poetic message of Isaiah is one of victory, hope, comfort, and restoration of all things. Explore the vision of a man who saw the glory of God and spoke with burning lips, for true prophetic ministry flows from this “vision” until it grows into a burden. FEATURES INCLUDE: - A heartfelt and moving translation of the book of Isaiah. - Binding: Paperback - Pages: 224 - Pages: 224

In 1517, Martin Luther’s 95 Theses sparked what became known as The Reformation, a movement that changed the Church forever and continues to shape and inspire Christian churches today. However, many people have never read the 95 Theses. Those that have read it often find it cryptic or dated. Pastor Bryan felt the same way and decided to look at each one along with Luther’s explanation to them. What he discovered within them is a constant reminder of what God has done for us and the love poured out for us in Jesus Christ. This love is more powerful than any human authority, frees us to not have to worry about our own fate, and brings us closer to our neighbor, whom we can freely serve out of the same love we know in Christ. Join Pastor Bryan as he reflects on each thesis and how they continue to speak to us over 500 years after they were written, empowering us to live our lives to the fullest as God intended.
